translated from Spanish: Former Republican President George W. Bush backed Biden and said the election was “fair”

In a statement the former representative noted that “no matter how they voted, their vote counted.” Bush added that President Donald Trump has the right to ask for recounts and file legal appeals, so that any unresolved matter is “duly adjudicated.” Bush said now is the time when “we must unite for the good of our families and neighbors, and for our nation and its future.” He noted that he has spoken to Joe Biden and thanked the president-elect for what Bush said was a “patriotic message” in the Democrat’s speech Saturday night after he was declared the winner of the election. Bush said that while he and Biden have political differences, he knows Biden is “a good man who has earned his chance to lead and unify our country.” Meanwhile Donald Trump spent his first day as outgoing president on a Virginia golf course, which he arrived on Sunday before 10 a.m. for the second day in a row. At the site he was greeted by several protesters. The representative was also on the golf course on Saturday, when The Associated Press and other media outlets declared their rival, Democrat Joe Biden, as the winner of the presidential election. And just like yesterday, Trump still doesn’t admit his defeat and continues to question the results without proof. For his part, current President-elect Joe Biden noted that he plans to appoint former public health director Dr. Vivek Murthy and former Food and Drug Administration communication, Physician David Kessler, as co-chairs of the coronavirus response working group he will present in the coming days. Kate Bedingfield, Biden’s deputy campaign director, made the announcement Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press”. Murthy and Kessler have been part of a group of experts and doctors who have informed Biden about the pandemic for months. Murthy was director of public health during former President Barack Obama’s second term, and Kessler was an FDA commissioner in the 1990s and now serves as chairman of the board at the Center for Public Interest Sciences.In addition Biden indicated that he will create an “agency review team” this week, these are people who have access to key agencies in the current government to facilitate the transfer of power. Teams will collect and review information such as budget and personnel decisions, pending regulations, and other ongoing work from federal departments. In that line Biden’s transition team created the website BuildBackBetter.com and will launch social media accounts under the user “Transition46”.
